The PS5 version is next gen. We are going all out as much as we can on PS5 within the confines of 60FPS. The ps4 version will be coming later down the road and it will be a down graded version. We are not sacrificing anything on PS5 for ps4.
GB: ""Once we were nearing the end of development we knew that there was no way of turning what we had built into a great game for the PS4," says TeamKill Media co-founder and owner Micah Jones."
"We will continue to work to see if we can improve things, but the current state of the game on the Series S is unacceptable," TeamKill Media co-founder and owner Micah Jones says.
Is Starfield even a game to write home about? There's plenty of technical limitations
Don't get me wrong, I feel most are only talking about this game because of their comments on this, and they know it, which is why it keeps getting brought up. It's not like the gameplay they showed was anything mind blowing. Too many devs have already smoke about the S being an issue, but in this case, they're sort of just hoping for the attention
Like those fugly faces🤣🤣 The one guy that is the center of attention, with all those leak photos of fugly looking characters, looks like that guy from that “Oh My!!!!!” Commercial! The way how he looks at you dead in your eyes!
Starfeild got a decade's worth of development and was designed long before current gen consoles were even in the pipeline so it's safe to assume it started life as a last gen designed game.
This game is a Small budget indie title they don't have the liberty to dev for a decade to shoehorn the engine into a fully functional series s compatible game.
Oh you mean that point and click “choose your own adventure as long as your choice matches where we want you to go” 3D planet clip art game?
Yeah not every studio has the resources to throw for a weak ass hardware on a console that sells a fraction of its competition
Quantum Error uses Unreal Engine 5. Starfield uses an old Engine that's over 20 years old
While Starfield does boast a large playable area, it really isn't the best-looking game. The game also recommends a 2080 on Steam and runs at 30fps on Xbox Series.
Also, the use the word "unacceptable" as a subjective descriptor. Maybe think 30fps is unacceptable?
The only way these developers get publicity and gather some "interest" in their game is by bashing the Xbox in some form or another. They have done it the past... and now they doing it again.
... and all this for a game that was supposed to be released on the PS4. * Facepalm *
As it should be.
Single player game so that’s a good start.
Last gen means they are sacrificing something.
If you scroll down a bit someone asks about the xbox version, here is an interesting reply.

Can’t say for sure just yet on Xbox, but what we have seen on the series X is that performance tends to be a bit lower by default and we will have to spend extra time to optimize for it.
So wait. The PS4 version will be coming down the road and it will be a downgraded version..... yet they said they aren't going to be sacrificing anything on PS5 for PS4. Huh?
Why would you need to sacrifice anything on PS5 to make a PS4 game? Also, if the game is a downgrade from the PS5 version, isn't that sacrificing at least 1 feature?
I'm a native English speaker and I'm having trouble parsing exactly what the TWEET meant.
